Totoo bang wala daw pondo ang Philippine Health Insurance Corporation panustos sa ambag ng National Government sa Philhealth premiums ng mga persons with disabilities samantalang may 61.5 Billion budgetary support sa 2024 national budget at kabuuhang 101.5 Billion sa Spending Priorities, at nakapag0ambag ng 20 Billion sa National Treasury ayon sa balita ng Rappler
https://www.rappler.com/voices/thought-leaders/in-this-economy-marcos-government-unlawfully-dipping-philhealth-funds/ ?

Sa minimun na 500 monthly premium ng rehistradong 1,856,522 na may kapansanan (Hunyo 8, 2024 mula sa DOH na nakalagay sa websayt ng National Council on Disability Affairs), ang sumatutal na premium ay 11,139,132,000 o humigit-kumulang sa 12 Bilyon para sa taong 2024).

Kaya paanong walang pondo ang Philhealth at isisisi sa Kongreso? Bakit panay pa rin ang awas sa sweldo ng mga nagtatrabahog may kapansanan para sa ambag nila sa premium gayong malinaw sa RA 11228 na sagot ng National Govt ang ambag ng mga may kapansanan?

Balita ko may recommendation daw for hearing aid ang isang may profound hearing loss sa isang lungsod bandang katimugan pero nakakarinig naman kahit walang hearing aid. Alam nyo ba magkano ang dekalidad na hearing aid para sa kagaya kong may profound hearing loss? 70K to 110K lang naman, at isang piraso lang yun.

Balita ko rin na pang matinong hearing ang budget na hinihingi ng ilang opisina ng gobyerno pero kapag aprubao na ay galing sa Lazlas at Shopshup ang binibigay sa bingi.

Sana mali mga balita ko. Mabuti na lang talaga binago na ako ng Dios at may takot na sa Kanya. Pero pag naungkat ko talaga itong mga raket ganito, naku!

Celebrating a small contribution but a big win for hard of hearing Filipinos in enhancing the definition of hard of hearing in the deliberation of the Technical Working Group of the Supreme Court PH on the Rules on Filipino Sign Language Interpreting in the Judiciary.

Hats off to Ms. Carolyn B. Dagani, immediate past president of Philippine Federation of the Deaf for the spirit of inclusion and Ms. Mj Leoveras, immediate past president of Hard of Hearing Group Philippines for the linkup. We truly can accomplish more if we find and focus on our common ground instead of defining our differences.
